Produced in conjunction with student group Ghost Light Productions, this critically acclaimed play invites you to pull up a seat around the fire with the counselors at summer camp Indigo Woods, who meet nightly to strategize about the next day’s activities without the kids finding out about…well, you’ve seen the news. As an increasingly volatile outside threat gets closer to their safe haven, the counselors struggle with how to preserve the fun while keeping their campers – and themselves – alive. The Grown-Ups explores how to mold the leaders of tomorrow in a dangerous world you’re hopelessly, tragically not prepared for. “An apocalyptic play... part satire, part scary story.” – The New York Times
